Almost all the emulators I mentioned are more accurate.
All the emulators I mentioned have alot more features, options, and eye candy than MESS. I'm not going to name all of them (such as video filters, rewind support for Nestopia) as they are way too many to name. But I know your knowledgeable enough in the matter to know what I'm talking about.
All the emulators I mentioned have fewer bugs and glitches in the games that they emulate than MESS.
All the emulators I mentioned are able to play more homebrews and pirates than MESS.
All the emulators I mentioned are better equipped and easier to do TAS video stuff such as recording gamplay videos, etc.
